It's our birthday

Be part of Radioplayer's 10th birthday

A year of Disney+ up for grabs!

This month marks Radioplayer's tenth anniversary!

We started out in March 2011 building web players and since then we've expanded with apps available on platforms from phones and smart speakers to TVs, in car and beyond. And we're live in a dozen countries across Europe and Canada.

To celebrate, we're giving you the chance to win a year of Disney+ plus Radioplayer goodies by sending us a 'Happy Birthday' video selfie. All you have to do is film a short clip of yourself saying Happy Birthday to Radioplayer, send it in and you could be in with a chance of winning.

We're looking for the most creative clips. We don't mind whether you film at home or out and about in your local community but the most visually interesting clips will go on to be included in a video montage we'll be sharing with broadcasters, supporters and within the Radioplayer family.

There are a few simple rules to be aware of. These are

  • The clips must be 5-10 seconds long
  • Film in landscape (hold your phone horizontal not upright)
  • They can be in any language but must include the phrase 'Happy Birthday Radioplayer'
  • And please do observe the social distancing rules in your area. Let's keep everyone safe whilst having fun

Once you've got your clip ready, email it to contact@radioplayer.co.uk with the subject line BIRTHDAY! or post to our Facebook page.

Closing date is 1200 GMT on Friday 26th March 2021. Boring legal stuff follows.
